One can hear the sounds of bells, priest chanting the mantras and people offering prayers to the deity in this temple. But, the one thing that stands out about this temple is that Mahatma Gandhi is worshipped by the villagers instead of a deity. This temple in the western part of Odisha stands above all religions, castes, and creeds. Anyone can visit this temple. The priest of this temple is from a non-Brahmin caste.
